Chapter 421 Conversation with Smart People

In the next few days, Master Pei Wu did not come to harass Cui Pu again.

"It seems that there are still smart people around him." Cui Pu said to Mu Jiaojiao in this way.

Mu Jiaojiao nodded. "Anyway, he is also the son of the Jinglue Envoy of the Five Houses of Lingnan, but his brain is not very bright, and there are a lot of people who are around him who are clever. How can they just watch him make mistakes again and again? ? A young man has already fallen into your hands, and they won't take another one in."

"That's right!" Cui Pu sighed, "It's just that I haven't had enough fun! I only teased that fifth master once, and it's not fun at all!"

"Just take it easy! He is the only son who stays with Jinglueshi anyway. If you go too far, Jinglueshi won't let you go." Mu Jiaojiao said.

"I know, so let him go this time! Now, I'd better seize the opportunity to deal with that lawless brat!" Cui Pu said, then sneered again, "It's been so many years, I'm still the first Once I saw someone more lawless than me. If I don’t seize the opportunity to fight against his arrogance, won’t he climb on top of me in the future? I have to let the people of Guangzhou know— —In terms of lawlessness, I, Cui Pu, can only rank first in this world, and everyone else should stand back obediently!"

Mu Jiaojiao was unable to support his forehead. "Don't worry, no one will compete with you for this title."

"That's not necessarily the case. Isn't there only one squatting in the prison now?" Cui Punu pouted.

Mu Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to him.

Cui Pu became interested, and quickly came over and sat next to her, and kept rubbing against her body: "Tell me, am I a big bastard? Tell me, my lady!"

"Yes, yes, you are a big bastard, the number one big bastard in the world, no one can compare to you, is that okay?" Mu Jiaojiao was so entangled that he couldn't do anything, so he could only follow his request.

Cui Pu suddenly smiled. "That's right! I have determined to be the number one dude in the world since I was a child. I have never given up on this idea until now!"

"Then keep working hard." Mu Jiaojiao said weakly.

"Okay! With your encouragement, my lady, I will be more motivated!" Cui Pu said, his hands had already begun to sneak into the hem of Mu Jiaojiao's clothes dishonestly.

"What are you doing!" Mu Jiaojiao exclaimed immediately.

Cui Pu took it for granted. "Didn't you say I'm going to be a big bastard? Now, I'll show you the bastard!"

"You... bastard!" Mu Jiaojiao was dumbfounded, and finally could only swear like this.

After finishing all the affairs behind the government office, Cui Pu also sorted out all the previous files, and then began to hear Mr. Pei Jiulang's case of renting a house in a post house.

In fact, the trial is actually just a formality.After all, he had already reached a conclusion on Mr. Pei Jiulang's crimes at that time, and before leaving the post, he collected a thick stack of testimonies signed by the common people.The evidence is conclusive, and there is no way to deny it... Although Mr. Pei Jiulang shouted for injustice, he was stabbed in the Yamen acupoint after a few shouts, and his voice became dumb again.

Then, Cui Pu pronounced the sentence in court: "Twenty big boards will be beaten hard, a fine of [-] guan will be fined, and he will be imprisoned in the dungeon of the government office for three years, so as to make an example of others!"

Not only that, he also asked people to draw portraits of Pei Jiulangjun and his group, and then wrote their evil appearances on paper, and then asked people to paste them all over every place in Guangzhou City.

"This man must have lied to him more than once. I just came here, and since I met him, I must not tolerate it. Now, let the people of Guangzhou City take a good look at his appearance. If anyone finds out that he has Those who have been deceived by him should report directly to the government office, and the government will help the common people seek justice!" Cui Pu righteously declared when handing out the papers.

Then, Mr. Pei Jiulang was stripped of his trousers in public and beat him twenty times, and the people who came to watch after hearing the news applauded loudly.

After the fight is over, drag people to the dungeon one after another, and everyone is satisfied.

The next day, Cui Pu received a post from the Economic and Strategic Envoy of the Five Lingnan Prefectures.It was envoy Pei Jinglue who wrote it himself and invited Cui Pu's family to the banquet.

"It seems that the smartest person in that house is the economic envoy! Look, he sent the post as soon as the matter was over. Dealing with this person is much more comfortable than dealing with Mr. Pei Wu! " Cui Pu shook the post to Mu Jiaojiao, smiling incomparably complacently and arrogantly.

Mu Jiaojiao looked calm. "So you plan to go?"

"Go, why don't you go? The land snake in Lingnan personally invited me. If I don't go, I'm going to kill myself! Besides, I happen to have a few things that I want to discuss with him! Taking this opportunity, everyone will discuss everything in one go. It's solved, how great!" Cui Pu said with a smile, and took her hand, "However, the weather here in Lingnan is so hot and stuffy, I wear this clothes, I have to sweat several times a day. Good lady, give me another I'm going to make some new clothes so I can go out for a visit!"

"It's not that you don't know my craftsmanship, it's enough to wear it at home, how can you take it out to meet guests?" Mu Jiaojiao shook his head.

"But I like the clothes you make. The clothes you make are the most comfortable to wear!" Cui Pu insisted.

"Okay, I'll just make you two more pajamas." Mu Jiaojiao said helplessly.

Isn't this what he wants?
Cui Pu nodded reluctantly: "Okay, pajamas are pajamas. However, I want new clothes too!"

This stinking man is even older!
Mu Jiaojiao couldn't help cursing angrily in her heart.

However, the dressing style in Guangzhou is indeed different from that in Yangzhou, and the climate is hotter and humid than in Yangzhou.Mu Jiaojiao originally planned to invite someone to come to make a few sets for everyone as soon as possible.Now that Cui Pu said so, she quickly asked someone to invite people from the embroidery workshop to tailor the clothes for the whole family, and made a few sets of clothes in the style of Guangzhou, and told the embroidery workshop to make a set of clothes as a gift. Come and give them an emergency.

The clothes had just been ready and delivered, and it was time for the family to pay a visit to the Jinglue envoy's residence.

The Economic and Strategic Envoys of the Five Lingnan Prefectures are also in Guangzhou, but they are a little far away from the government office.Cui Pu took his wife and children away for half an hour before arriving at the gate of the Jinglue Mission's Mansion.

After entering the second gate, Mu Jiaojiao took a few children and was taken to the female relatives in the backyard.Cui Pu followed the housekeeper to Pei Jinglue's study.

Walking quietly all the way, the butler suddenly said: "When Prefect Cui first came to Guangzhou, the little dog didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, and had some quarrels with you. After knowing about it, he has already scolded him, and please prefect Cui, please don't be as knowledgeable as him. In the future, let him go to the government office to apologize to you and admit his mistake."

It turns out that the little butler is the son of the big butler!No wonder the shelf still looks like that!
It seems that Mr. Pei Wu chose his partner carefully that time.It's a pity that the person he wants to fight is Cui Pu, a spirit who grew up in Ge Lao Mansion.He couldn't be more clear about the mental outlook of the person in charge.So he exposed their lies in the first place.

Looking at it now, did I seem to have overdone it?
"Oh, that's what you're talking about! He's not wrong, isn't he the steward of the Jinglue envoy's house?" Cui Pu asked with a smile.

The butler immediately murmured, and then stopped talking.

After walking further in for about a cup of tea, Cui Pu finally entered Pei Jinglue's study.

Envoy Pei Jinglue is now in his sixties, his beard and hair are all white, but he looks in good spirits.Especially those eyes, they are real tiger eyes.Even though he was just looking down at the military book in his hand, the light overflowing from the corners of his eyes was enough to make people feel chilling.

This person seemed to be obsessed with the words on the scroll. He didn't hear what the big housekeeper said, so he naturally ignored Cui Pu who came in.

Cui Pu waited patiently for a while, seeing that the old man didn't pay attention to him for a long time, he simply pulled a bed over, took a book of war from the couch, and looked through it with great interest.

When he was doing these movements, Pei Jinglue twitched his brows slightly, and immediately regained his composure.

The two of them kept their respective positions and read the book for almost half an hour before Pei Jinglue suddenly asked, "Where did you see it?"

"King Xiang killed himself," Cui Pu replied.

"Then who do you think King Xiang is?"

"He is a hero, but he is also a coward." Cui Pu said.

"I understand heroes, but what do you mean by cowards?"

"Isn't that clear enough? The majestic overlord of Western Chu, who has only lost a few battles, has fallen to the point of being sad and self-deprecating, and crying to the beauties under the account? An upright man, no matter what happens, isn't he Should they immediately call a counselor to find a countermeasure? Crying can't solve the problem. He, a beauty, only knows how to dance and commit suicide, which is useless at all. Crying with her can only make the mood worse and lower morale It's really unwise to go downhill."

"Then if it were you, what would you do?"

"Fight!" Cui Pu suddenly lifted his spirits, "No matter what, if you fight the enemy to the death, you will not be in vain of the title of Overlord of Western Chu. At worst, return to the Jiangdong base camp with the remnants of the army, and recruit new troops to make a comeback. People are alive There is hope, once you die, there is nothing left. Especially if you kill yourself... It's too embarrassing for a man!"

"Then if you lose the battle and lose all the soldiers at hand, isn't this a shame?"

"Throw it away! But it's too naive to commit suicide because of such a thing. Anyway, I won't allow future generations to laugh at me like this. A real man must die by the enemy's knife if he wants to die!"

Pei Jing smiled lightly. "That's what you think."

"That's right, isn't what you're asking about my thoughts?" Cui Pu responded.

Pei Jing was slightly startled, and then said: "That's right, what I'm asking is what you think. Now, I know!"

"Now that we know, can we talk about business?" Cui Pu said immediately.
